Episode 243

This weekend Desmond attended Vancouver's first major comic convention: the Vancouver Fan Expo! Bright eyed and bushy-tailed this morning, he provides you with audio from three interviews. First up, he talks to comics legend Len Wein about his astounding career, stand-up comedy, and his upcoming series Before Watchmen: Ozymandias. Then, comic artist and filmmaker Kaare Andrews talks about graphic design, tight shooting locations, and The ABCs of Death. Finally, Jim and Kyle from nerd rock band Kirby Krackle talk about their songwriting process, gender-bending cosplay, and wrestling in mud and jello. The convention playlist is as follows: "All Along the Watchtower" by Jimi Hendrix, "Desolation Row" by My Chemical Romance, "Waydown" by Catherine Wheel, "Up, Up, Down, Down" and "Hunt 'Em All Down" by Kirby Krackle.
